Relocation

Post Body

Hey all 👋

I’m an EU citizen (DE) relocating to CH for work. I’ve been looking at Airbnbs for the first months but the prices seem outrageous to me (6k for a flat suitable for a family of 4 in Luzern).

Is it realistic to land a normal renting contract from a real state agency before we arrive in Switzerland?

We can prove income and whatnot, I’m wondering if realtors would take us into account or it would be a waste of our time to even try. We could take some trips there to check apartments beforehand but maybe that’s also not enough.

Maybe I should also just readjust my expectations, also fair. 😅
